A Summerfield man was charged Wednesday with two counts of sexual battery and one count of lewd and lascivious molestation. The arrest came as result of two separate reports of alleged abuse of different juveniles.

In the first case, officials received a report that Michael Todd Cain had sex with a 14-year-old girl in 2005 and forced her to perform a sex act on him around the same time. In the second case, a 12-year-old alleged that Cain fondled her breast in November 2012.

Cain, 42, was taken to the Marion County Sheriff’s Office, where he was interviewed by Detective Rhonda Stroup. Cain denied the allegations.
